Live from Southern California, this is the Jim Rome show.

Remember when the NCAA tournament was boring and lame?

Remember that.

Neither do I.

One more quick question.

Are you not entertained?

I was the one sitting in this very seat a week ago, pushing back hard on the haters in that bull crap narrative that the tournament just isn't all that anymore. Yeah, well, I don't think any of the genius lava pigs are trying to make that argument today.

Not after we were just treated to one of the most insane, outrageous, incredible endings in the history of that sport.

So, was that one of the single greatest comebacks ever?

Or was that one of the most single horrific gag jobs

ever? Of course the answer is, as always, yes. Look, I don't want to take anything away from

Yukon because they pulled off the impossible. They did. But I also have to admit that the

impossible was only possible because They did. But I also have to admit that the impossible was only possible because Duke

did not finish again. Now, you know I hate to use the word choke. And I always think long and

hard before I ever hit anybody with that label. But for the second year in a row,

there is no other word to describe the end of Duke's season.

There is no question, they choked.

Like that guy.

Like me sometimes on my almonds.

But, but, but, wow, wow, wow, but there's also no question, Yukon are winners.

There's no question they've got the heart of a champion.

There is no question whether or not they are built for these moments.
